FEEDING PoULfRY.-In the summer
feed Of poultry corn should be left out
Of the diet altogether, as it Is too heat
ing and largely conduces to fat. II the
hens are fed twice day, the meal in
the morning should be composed OF
whatever is intended for them other
than whole grains. An excellent mix
ture Is ten pounds Of ground oats,
three pounds Of bran, two pounds OF
middlings and two pounds Of ground
meat, or meat in any shape. Scald
with boiling water, and add a tea
spoonful Of salt for every twenty hens.
A tablespoonful Of the mixture early
in the morning is enough, as it should
be the aim not 70 give as much as the
hens require, so as 10 compel them to
work during the day. If it Is desired
to give them q noon meal, let it be
grass, which is better for them than
any kind of concentrated food. At
night whole wheat or oats should be
given. BY combining the food as di-
rected, il viii furnish the hens with all
they require, as the compound con-
tains Che elements required for egg
production. II the hens are to be fat
tened for market, give corn and corn
meal pientifully, and feed four times q
day Be careful not 70 keep the laying
hens in the same yard with those which
are intended to be sent 10 Market

THfs YEAR's E.ANss.-The Montana

been quite large. although Of course
the number Of ewes 20 lamb was much
reduced By the great mortality OF last
winter. The percentage Of dry ewes
was smaller than usual. and had the
winter been a mild one. and had the

A Coon IpEA.-An Illinois dairyman
being dissatisfied with the average yield
per COW in his dairy, began testing
each separately for the amount Of milk
gwen, thus wedding out the cows
which not only were not paying for
their keep, but were costing Riore than
their produce come TO. This caused a
decided improvement, but the result
was not entirely satisfactory The
cows were then tested by setting the
milk, skimming and churning separ.
ateiy from each. BY this method the
actual value Of each COW was deter.
mined, the poor ones sold and replaced
by heifers from the best dairy breeds
The result was that the butter yield
was raised from Jos 10 $50 pounds per
year per head.

THE LIQVOR LA w .

The attempt to prevent people
drinking liquor In New York on
Sundays is already Acknowledged a
failure. 1t is one thing to prove
that liquordrinkingis wrongand an
other thing to prevent the drinking.
There are a class of people who are
bound to drink Sundays and week
days and any attempt TO curtail
their privileges meets with their
lively opposition. OF all the laws
the prohibition liquor law is the
easiest evaded. There is also a
class of people. and this class en-
braces nine tenths of the human
lace. who will so ten blocks out of
their way in order to do something
the law forbids. The law in New
York has caused numbers of people
to try to evade it who never before
cared much about liquor. These
men now put in their time studying
how to get drunk and seem to sue
coed pretty well.

voted to advocating the manage

of the naturalization laws, and the
restriction of the ballot to citizens
who are able to read and write the
English language. We hope the
venture may meet with success, and
would also like to see the American
secure large list of subscribers in

on this Coast as well as throughout

is doing for this country. If the

tinues in the same spirit as its pros
pectus indicates, it will doubtless
succeed. We hope it will.
